Safe Spaces, the national Church-related abuse support service has created three new posters to print and display in your churches and church buildings.
One of the posters includes a scannable QR code which will take people to the Safe Spaces website. This is a free and independent support service, providing a confidential, personal and safe space for anyone who has been abused by someone in the Church or as a result of their relationship with the Church of England, the Catholic Church in England and Wales or the Church in Wales.
They do not need to have told the police or the Church authorities about the abuse in order to access support.
Two of the posters contain small tear off strips at the bottom. When you print these posters, cut the lines between the telephone numbers, so that people can easily tear off a strip and take the contact number with them to use at a time that works for them.
